11 “But the ane wha is greatest amang ye sal be the ane that serʼs.
“Nor be ye caʼd ‘Leaders;’ for Ane is yere Leader, Christ.
And he sut him doon, and caʼd the Twalʼ, and says to them, “Gin ony ane wad be first, he sal be last oʼ aʼ, and servitor oʼ aʼ.”
For eʼen free as I am frae aʼ, I am thirlman to aʼ, that I micht win the mair.
“Servitors oʼ Christ” are they? (As ane daft I am talkin,) I eʼen mair! In toils mair abundant; in imprisonments muckle mair abundant; in stripes ayont coontin; in deaths aft.
For we proclaim‐na oor ain sels; but Christ Jesus as Lord, and oorsels as yere servitors for Jesusʼ sake.
For ye war caʼd in freedom, brethren: but turn‐na yere freedom intil an indulgence to the flesh, but raither by yere love serʼ ye ane anither.
